Effect of polypropylene fibres on the shear strength of fine-grained soil [PDF]
Archives of Civil EngineeringThis paper presents the results of shear strength tests of fine-grained soil reinforced by randomly oriented fibres. The tests were carried out in a direct shear apparatus on samples with a diameter of 100 mm and a height of 20 mm.

Modelling shear strength of compacted soils [PDF]
E3S Web of Conferences, 2019 Compacted soils constitute most engineering projects such as earth dams, embankments, pavements, and engineered slopes because of their high shear strength and low compressibility. The shear strength of compacted soils is a key soil parameter in the design of earth structures but it is seldom determined correctly due to their unsaturated state.

Undrained Soil Behavior under Bidirectional Shear [PDF]
, 2016 In practice, the soil is subject to more than one shear stress in many cases. For instance, the soil in an embankment is subject to a static shear stress along sloping direction, and the sloping direction is usually different from the direction of an ...
